love this song! i always took the lyrics to be direct meaning of he stayed awhile in another state/country (perhaps going to an out-of-state college?) and has to return home to california leaving behind a loved one/friends/place he loves. Anyone know of a deeper meaning?
a few corrections to the lyrics....
Oh my dear
What a race we have run
Oh my sweet
What a phase we will become
How do I go back to California?
How do I leave the green fields here?
Warm nights in your sweet magnolia
How do i leave the green fields here?
Oh my friends
What a long trip it's been
Many nights and the friends that we have made
How do I go back to California?
How do I leave the tall trees here?
Warm nights in your sweet magnolia
how do I leave the green fields?
How do I go back to California?
How Do i Leave the green fields here?
Warm nights in your sweet magnolia
How do I leave the green Fields?
